Introduction
The RCAB (Royal City Alumni Band) was formed in 1987 by former members of the New Westminster and District Concert Band. The band has revised it's name to RCCB (Royal City Concert Band). We provide an opportunity for young people to continue playing in a Band beyond High School. Our founding conductor, Fred Turner, was a long time conductor of the District Band. After Fred, the RCCB's conductors have been Fred's son Tom, followed by Vic Crewe and our current conductor Earl Hobson.
